In this paper a theory of dialogue acts analysis in problem-solving tasks-oriented conversations is presented. The theory postulates that in practical dialogues every transaction h...
Asynchronous circuits have received much attention recently due to their potential for energy savings. Process algebras have been extensively used in the modelling, analysis and sy...
Abstract. A longstanding open problem is whether there exists a nonsyntactical model of the untyped -calculus whose theory is exactly the least -theory . In this paper we investiga...
In the theory of living systems any description of self-organizing processes is confronted by a very central problem concerning the role of the system's boundary, i.e., there...
The literature on the nature and representation of time is full of disputes and contradictory theories. This is surprising since the nature of time does not cause any worry for pe...
In this paper we introduce and investigate a mathematically rigorous theory of learning curves that is based on ideas from statistical mechanics. The advantage of our theory over ...

This paper presents a formal theory for reasoning about motion of spatial entities, in a qualitative framework. Taking over a theory intended forspatial entities, we enrich ittoac...
We present a foundational theory of software system reliability based on components. The theory describes how component developers can design and test their components to produce ...
— In this paper, we develop a theory of computable types suitable for the study of control systems. The theory uses type-two effectivity as the underlying computational model, bu...
This study examines the potential applications of the Rational Expectations Hypothesis (REH) in information technology (IT) investment and adoption decisionmaking. Although REH ha...
